S_ALR_87013611: Cost Centers: Actual/Plan/Variance

Hello everyone,
I am needing some help in understanding the Cost Centers: Actual/Plan/Variance report S_ALR_87013611. I understand the basic concept, but I am having trouble figuring out how it comes up with its numbers in the "Total Value in Report Currency" field.
When I go into the report, a list of cost center groups pop-up on the left-hand side of the screen. So, I select cost center group 200, then the right-hand side of the screen pulls up a list of the cost elements and their actual VS planned numbers. When I scroll down to the bottom of the screen I see a section for "Activity Types", so I double click on activity type A200 "ST Personnel Run Hours" and then I select "Cost Centers: Actual Line items" report. This is where I am seeing the "Total Value in Report Currency" field that I can not figure out how it is calculating. The column header for this actually reads "Val.in rep. cur.", I have went into F1 for the help information and it, unfortunately, does not help me what so ever.
Also, where does it come up with the "Total Quantity" on the same report?
I would appreciate any insight into the report.
Thanks in advance for all of you help,
Rhonda

Hello Madhu,
I am not seeing a different currency, I just do not understand how it comes up with the result in that column? Where does it pull the amount from exactly?
The hr quantity shows .250 hrs and the value in rep.cur. shows 6.06. Where does the 6.06 come from?
Any help in understanding this would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
Rhonda

Currency in 'Cost Centers: Actual/Plan/Variance' report for specific user

Hi there CO people, I'd like to ask about currency settings in CO S_ALR_87013611 report (Cost Centers: Actual/Plan/Variance)
The question is ... where can I define the currency in which report output should be displayed?
I've got such situation, that amounts for USER_X are displayed in CURR_X currency, whilst for USER_Y amounts in report are displayed in CURR_Y currency.
Could You tell me some tip? Or give some literature-track to follw? I'd be thankful for help. Greetings. P.

USER_X -> TCode: RPC0 -> Tab: Report currency -> Tick 'Objeck currency' (Before was: 'Controlling area currency')
now USER_X has got the same currency as USER_Y
That solved my problem
Greetings

S_ALR_87013611 - Cost center: Actual/Plan/Variance selection report - outpu

Hello all,
when running the report,it can be seen in SAP screen by cost groups and by cost elements.
The problem is that when user tries to save report in local file, then it is not able to see cost center distribution. User can only see cost elements amounts.
is there a way we can save on a local file cost groups as well?
Thanks in advance for letting me know
regards
Hana

Hi,
Look for data source 0CO_OM_CCA_1 ( Cost Centers: Costs and Allocations ) ..it will give you the plan / actual /commitment amounts & qty.
Link is http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/8d/1f383fe58d5900e10000000a114084/frameset.htm

Issue with report (S_ALR_87013611) that is actual/plan line items for Cost

Hi Gurus,
I am having issue with the report (S_ALR_87013611) that is actual/plan line items for Cost Center.
When i execute the report for a cost element 510200 the amount is 23,380.13, but when i drill down on it by double click on that amount the value in obj curr is 15468.91. Hence there is the differnce. When i futher drill down by double click on the amont of 15468.91 and i go to display group currency and take the total it is 23380.13 and display in local / doc currency the amount is 15468.91. I guess due to this there is difference. The cost center & the cost elements are the same i have checket it.
My concerns is that the group curr is USD and obj curr / local curr is USD. So is group curr and doc curr is USD then when i click on dislay curr and select group curr why the amounts are changing.
Kindly adivce

Try to look if there is any filtering criteria applied in the report to which you drill-down.
The difference can be also caused by the "value type" - some reports show actual and statistical costs together in one column while the others strictly show (are defined to show) only e.g. actual costs (type 04) and not the statistical costs (type 11)

Hi Kumar,
I have done below steps to my CC Report to show by period wise(individual columns Jan, Feb, so..on) cost center report:
Step 1: used Library 1VK, Table CCSS in GRR1.
Step 2: Created 12 individuals columns starting from Jan to Dec..
Step 3: Created 12 formula variables(internal Variables) for 12 periods..(becoz if I hardcoded system is deriving all the
             periods)..
           a) created Internal value Variable ZVAR(defaualt 01),ZAR1(default 02),ZAR2 (default 03)...this is for to create fomula
               variables.
           b) for period 1(jan) formula variable "IF '&ZVAR'>= 1 THEN 1 ELSE 017" internal variable table:CCSS,field:PERBL
           c) for period 2(feb) IF '&ZVA1'>= 2 THEN 2 ELSE 017 like wise created 12 variables for 12 periods
Step 4: above the formula variables I have selected check box as variable but not coming on selection screen, I need in
            selection screen from period to period for this I have created one more hide column and given period vairable "1PERIK"
           now its coming on the selection screen but values are not populating based on by selection criteria..
Note: If I slect 1-4 periods it should show for only Jan,Feb, Mar & April and individually..

Hi Experts,
I need to get variance, Plan, and actual cost (material cost) by Production Order. Does SAP has BAPI to do this?
Best Reguard

For costing report, you have to read the following tables: based on material Qty/value/ Machine rate and machine posting date , machine rate ( T-code kp26) and also types of material Raw, finished and semi finished ..
AFRU ,AFPO,AFKO,AFVV,AFVC,CAUFV FOR PRODUCTION ORDER.
For material calculation MARA, MSEG and MKPF as well as MAKT...
Hope thisll help you .

How to create z-report ( actual , planned , variance -production qty)

Hi dear experts,
My client need a report where we can see production order qty, actual production qty, dependent matl planned qty and dependent matl actual consummed qty, and difference between actual and planned quantities in one single screen?
For this , sap have any std reports or else we have to create any z-report?
In case of z-report plz explain me how to create it.
please guide us.
Regards,
Imran

Hi,
you can check below standard PP reports transaction code:
COOIS - Production Order Info system
MCPM Production order anal.: Quantities
MCPD Production order analysis: Dates
MCPU Production Order Analysis: Lead Time
MCP0 Shop Floor Information System
MCP1 SFIS: Operation Analysis Selection
MCP3 SFIS: Material Analysis Selection
If you want to get Z development report, first you can go throgh your business requirement and what will client expect in your Z report, then you can check the production order header & component tables & its relevant fields.
You can prepare for functional specification for Z report development and will send it to ABAPer's.
Let me know any further clarifications.

Order Settlement/S_ALR_87012993 - Orders: Actual/Plan/Variance

in the above report, is it proper to say, initially all costs are
mentioned, and in the second level all setlled costs are mentioned.
The costs are in possitive figures and the settled costs are in
negative figures. is this a correct satement.
What if the costs are negative figures, then do the settlements have to
be negative and can cost be negative to begin with.
Please provide your insight.
Thanks
Ganga

The report takes care of credit thru FI posting and debit thru reversal settlement. In CO Dr/Cr indicator is updated differently as compared to FI.
Fo example -
CO debit includes all FI postings dr/ cr both
CO credit includes all debit / credit via settlement & settlement reversal

Customized report for cost centers by different cost centers

Hi All,
Customized report for cost centers by different cost centers:
I need to build a customised report with the following format:
Cost element columns | Cost center 1 | cost center 2 | cost center 3, etc -> dynamic cost center columns
CE 1 .............................. amount xxx | . amount xxx | .. amount xxx
CE 2 .............................. amount xxx | . amount xxx | .. amount xxx
CE 3 .............................. amount xxx | . amount xxx | .. amount xxx
CE 3 .............................. amount xxx | . amount xxx | .. amount xxx
User selection screen:
Controlling are:
Fiscal Year:
From period to period:
cost center group ... <range of CC group> or
cost center value ... <range of CC value>
Questions:
From the above selection screens, I need to pull out all the data stored in the table: COEP
But, the problem is that inside this table, there is no cost center or cost center group stored; and therefore the program should be smart enough to pull out all the documents from the table: COEP and then make sure that the document / list of documents that pull out should belongs to the cost center or cost center group, as well as date range.
KIndly advise how functional description/design should be built in order ABAPer can understand the requirement?
What should be the tables to refer in order meet the requirement.
Similar Standard SAP cost center report should be S_ALR_87013611 - Cost Centers: Actual/Plan/Variance, but this report read from many tables.

Hi,
Please find the logic below & try it at your system-
Here cost center group is not possible (also i not checked it so do it on your own simultaneously i am trying the same).
Use Table BSEG-> in bseg give the cost center-> with the help of cost center find the account number (field HKONT)-> take this GL account number & got to table COEP-> in this give the GL account number at field 'offsetting account' (field GKONT) & you will get the line item.
Try it & let me know if you have any question.
Thanks

Report Painter: Cash Flow Actual/Plan Report on Profit Center

I must create a Cash Flow report Actual/Plan/Variance Figures per Profit Center by using a report painter.
It will be created in monthly basis format, and year-to-date format (two different formats).
The format is in GL accounts instead of standard Cash In and Cash Out format.
I need to extract the Plan figures. However, we don't have planning on PCA. We are only doing plan on cost center, either revenue or cost (revenue is created as cost element category costs/reducing tax).
Should I extract it from the Cost Center Plan & add up all plan amounts of the cost centers that attached to the specific profit center? How can I do that?
What do you suggest as the best solution? Please explain briefly and using what t-code, tables and fields to extract from.
Thanks,

Hi John,

KSS1 - Variance calculation on cost centers

Hello,
i ran KSS1 but the variance calculated is the difference between actual and planned amounts (in my scenario planned = target).
Actually, i'd like to calculate and book the variance between costs booked on cost centers and absorptions coming from labour hours. At the end the aim is post somewhere the over/under absorption of production cost centers.
Any suggestion?
Thanks,
Reagrds

Hi,
i must settlement product order, so i need variance calculation. So can i settlement variances to FI only for some components of BOM and one variances of one component leave on procuct order? Or can i settlement variances of one component of BOM to other cost centrum than others components (alternatively under other cost elements)? Maybe substition.... If yes, how?
Thanks a lot,
Gustavo

Plant Maintenance Order planning costs transfer to Cost Centers.

Hello,
1. Capacity Planning
I'm trying to get planning information from a PM order back to a cost center.
I have planned operations in a PM order with a valid activity type and the work center is linked to the Cost Center.
But I cannot see any information in KSBL, Cost Center planning report.
I have tried KSPP - Transfer to Cost Center and KSOP - Transfer to Activity based costing.
Both come up empty.
What am I missing?
2. Costing.
I would like the planned costs in the PM order to settle to the cost center plan. But the PM orders are not configured for planned settlement (I believe that's an SAP setting).
How do I get the planned costs into a cost center's plan?
Thank you very much for your help,
Dan.

Thanks, but I'm trying to integrate the planning that happens in a PM order with the cost center. I was able to get planned costs from the orders via S_ALR_87012993.
the lack of planned settlement in a PM order is annoying. We do a lot of work on PM orders and settle actual costs to cost centers. It would be nice to use that same functionality (Operations, Components, task lists) to be able to plan costs and settle the planned costs to cost centers. Internal Orders can settle planned costs to cost centers, why not PM orders?
I believe the KSPP transaction helps to link the two objects somehow, but I can't get it to work. If anybody has any insights, that would be great.
Or should I be pursuing something else?
Thanks.
Dan.

0CO_PC_01 Cost Object Controlling: Plan/Actual Data

Hi Experts
I have a question regarding Cost Object Controlling: Plan/Actual Data (0CO_PC_01). I know nothing about the R/3 processes and tcodes behind this datasource.
For a given material and a given plant do I only get records with VTYPE(Value type for Reporting) 10, but I do not understand why - I need VTYPE = 70.
I therefore hope:
1. That somebody could provides input on why I only get VTYPE = 10 and how I get 70 instead.
2. That somebody can tell me the tcodes behind this datasource on the R/3 side.
Thanks and kind regards,
Torben

Hi Mr. V.
Thanks a lot for the input.
The problem is that we have got VTYPE 30 (target) for some materials, but not for specific material A and we really do not understand why. Do you know how I can verify if the variance is present for the given material A in R/3?
Thanks and kind regards,
Torben
Edited by: Torben Pedersen on Apr 3, 2009 12:00 AM
Sorry, it is VTYPE 30 i need, not 70 as stated by mistake at first.
